Dodging Bullets: A Documentary Film about Historical Trauma

Watch the trailer for Dodging Bullets—Stories from Survivors of Historical Trauma. The new film that examines loss and resiliency from generations of oppression and trauma.

 

Native Americans have dodged bullets since first contact with Europeans. This film brings a cross-generational sampling of Indigenous people, researchers, and politicians to reveal stunning reasons for their disproportionately high incidences of health and social issues. This collection of remarkable stories, names Historical Trauma as the unique and insidious part of the generic code that resilient Native American populations are still finding ways to dodge.
